'Better Call Saul' Meets 'Breaking Bad'?

[Warning: This story contains spoilers for Better Call Saul season three.]
After years Breaking Bad, it's fun for Bob Odenkirk to play someone who is (more or less) good.
The actor is enjoying his third consecutive Emmy nomination for his leading role in AMC's Better Call Saul, the drama in which he plays the quick talking lawyer Jimmy McGill. Against all odds, it's a surprisingly sympathetic role, giving a look at Saul Goodman before he became the criminal (emphasis on criminal) lawyer known to Breaking Bad viewers.
The third season saw a lot of changes, most notably the death of Jimmy's brother Chuck, played by Michael McKean. It's a loss that weighs heavily on the show, and on Odenkirk as he contemplates a future without his most seasoned sparring partner.
